Transforming Brazil: Julie Bateman and Ethan Shirley at TEDxUofM

Julie and Ethan have the future of our world as a whole in mind. Bateman, a Senior, and Shirley, a Graduate of the University of Michigan, built a school together which is set to open in May. The project was one of great collaboration with all areas of intellect: engineers, architects, and students. Through all of this, they are sure to keep sustainability in mind.About TEDx, x = independently organized eventIn the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
